Hey fanboy, are you not over the iPhone 6 yet? Because Apple has already got some new gear for you… However, this month’s announcements won’t be as exciting as the last ones for Apple.

Could it be the end of USB?

If you’ve ever owned a USB drive, you’ve probably passed viruses around like Buzzfeed articles on Facebook. Two months ago, Karsten Nohl, a security researcher, demonstrated an attack he called BadUSB (which can affect all USB devices and is unpatchable) at the Black Hat security conference, but decided not to release the code. Today, researchers Adam Caudill and Brandon Wilson announced that they have reverse-engineered the said code and will release it to force producing companies to take action. Read more…

Twitter UK launches live TV ratings

Your opinion matters to Twitter, because it is marketable to TV stations and advertisers. And this is why the platform is launching a listening tool (in the UK only for now) that will allow Kantar Media to measure which TV shows are talked about the most, how tweeps feel about the latest episode of their favorite series and a lot more. This is a way for the company to retarget audiences, shuffle schedules and enhance the overall TV experience for users. Read more…

Facebook will track you and your habits even further

Yes, Facebook tracks the heck out of your online activity, all the time. But, the privacy invader is taking things further now with its enhanced Atlas System.

It will compile data on what websites you check and what ads you see or interact with, and a whole lot more!  Read more…

The ‘Snappening’ isn’t as exciting as it sounds

Remember all of those disappearing nudies you sent to your boyfriend/girlfriend? Well, they’re still here!
